While this small, striped fish is commonly found in home aquariums, zebrafish also are a valuable animal model for human disease due to fast growth, large clutch sizes and easy genetic manipulation.

The four zebrafish arrived at the Tiangong space station aboard the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft on April 26, along with astronauts Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu. The fish live in a tank that forms ...

In previous studies of the transparent zebrafish, the researchers discovered a gene called mfsd2aa that, when mutated, caused the BBB to become leaky across the entire brain.

Zebrafish brains share a number of characteristics with those of humans, which is why they’re being used to track the movement of cancer cells in real time.

A new injectable gel (pictured) can react with the body’s sugars to “grow” an electrode inside living tissue, a study in zebrafish shows. THOR BALKHED By Simon Makin February 23, 2023 at 4:25 pm ...

Zebrafish eggs are among the most commonly used model organisms in genetic, developmental and toxicology research. A device developed by EPFL spin-off Bionomous cuts the time it takes to sort ...

Timme-Laragy led a research team in using transgenic zebrafish to study the effects of these toxic chemicals on embryos. "We are able to study in real time the effects on a very small subset of ...

A research team at the MDI Biological Laboratory in Bar Harbor has identified the signaling mechanisms in podocyte formation through the study of the transparent zebrafish.
